I've got pork roast,→[More:]mashed potatoes, gravy, sauteed green beans (with onion and red pepper), red cabbage, ginger carrots, and sparkling cider. You all would be welcome at the table.
I just concluded a swingin' party. On the table were: 7 layer bean dip, Biltmore Century White, Black Eyes Peas/Turnip Greens/Corn/Tomato/Chicken unnamed dish, Apple Cranberry Havest pie, bloody Korbel, Yuengling, and a bag of slightly stale Doritos. I thought of you all.
I made myself a New York Strip using a technique by Alton Brown that I hadn't tried before, with a Paso Robles reduction sauce and Yukon Gold mashed potatoes, skins on. The missus made low-fat brownies. Out-frigging-standing, and easy as something really quite easy.
Wish I'd made cornbread, though. I love cornbread.
